What I'm looking for

I seek remote roles in cloud/DevOps where I can lead automation, improve observability and optimize costs while collaborating with cross-functional teams and documenting best practices.

I am a CloudOps and DevOps engineer with broad experience in cloud cost management, automation and observability, supporting clients such as Naranja X, Cencosud and American Airlines. I deliver IaC with Terraform/Terragrunt, automate tasks with Bash and Python, and implement monitoring and alerts using Datadog and New Relic to improve visibility and reduce costs.

I have a strong background in Unix/Linux systems administration, VMware virtualization and configuration management, with proven experience creating documentation, runbooks and reports, coordinating with vendors, and working remotely to support multi-environment deployments. I am proactive, client-focused and persistent in troubleshooting until issues are resolved.
